Every day I experience life in the world of healthcare IT, supporting 3000 doctors, 18000 faculty, and 3 million patients. In this blog I record my experiences with infrastructure, applications, policies, management, and governance as well as muse on such topics such as reducing our carbon footprint, standardizing data in healthcare, and living life to its fullest.

Cool Technology of the Week

I recently had the pleasure of sitting next to EPA Deputy Regional Administrator, Ira Leighton, on a flight from Washington to Boston. We had a great discussion of the emerging technologies the EPA is using to create green, sustainable infrastructure.

I always love your "Cool Tech" posts: there's a lot of exciting innovation happening out there. Waste treatment becoming energy efficient (or even productive) across the country would be a huge step forward in helping out communities, not just in environmental but economical ways as well.

I decided to take it easy over at the Occam PM blog today with some cool tech as well: robots and bionic eyes. If nothing else, you should check out this Japanese virtual reality interface: that robot looks straight out of science fiction!
